#smoldering

[addicted2wasps]

I was today years old when I heard about the incredible Incense-Cedar Wood Wasp. Syntexis libocedrii is the only living species of Symphytan in the Anaxyelidae. It is considered a living fossil since the family has an extensive Mesozoic fossil record. It has the unique ability to oviposit in burnt incense-cedar. The wood is often still smoldering when the sawfly is laying its eggs. Nature is fascinating.

Here’s what I’ve been up to! I’ve been working on a drawing of the beautiful Maleina, and I went all out with the details. I really hope you all love this commission as much as I do—I totally fell in love with her!

🔥 NEW CHAPTER DROP – Death’s Kiss 🔥

The heat is rising, the tension is unbearable, and the line between control and surrender is razor-thin. If you haven’t started Death’s Kiss yet—what are you waiting for? Now’s the perfect time to dive into this slow-burn, tension-fueled journey between Rook and Emmrich!

📖 Read from the beginning: Act One, Chapter One 📖 Latest chapter: Act Two, Chapter 16

💀 Chapter Sneak Peek: The air is thick with the scent of her skin now, rich and warm, laced with the faintest trace of salt and something deeper—a hint of musk, raw and intoxicating. A strangled noise escaped him as the ball of her foot pressed firmly against his sternum. The warmth of her skin burns into his chest through all layers, forcing him back, further into the bed, the softness of the sheets brushing against his back like an almost cruel reminder of his helplessness. A helplessness that he would not fight for the world. He feels every inch of the fabric against him, the coolness of his clothes now feeling oppressive, foreign on his heated skin.

🔥 What to expect in Death’s Kiss 🔥 ✔️ Delicious slow-burn tension ✔️ Power play, restraint, and surrender ✔️ Emotional intensity & longing ✔️ That sweet, sweet Veilguard angst ✔️ Rook & Emmrich at their most vulnerable

💬 Reblogs, comments, and kudos fuel my writing soul! Let me know your thoughts—I love screaming about these two with you all. ❤️

Thank you @thepalehorsevictoria for starting the rental contract this chapter! I love Tara.

And of course, thank you @zecarnevilcat for the scene inspiration! I may or may not be stalking your work for more inspo o.o

got told at lunch "you feel like Tumblr Incarnate" and i had to tell them i've been here for 13 years and counting. i was here three years before dashcon happened. i saw the mishapocalypse. i survived the gigapause. i've been here longer than the shoelaces post. i've been here since it was hipsters versus fandom and i played both sides extensively by overdoing the sepia filters on everything and making my own flashing galaxy gif edits for my fandom posts. i'm every tumblr. it's all in me

I’m not civil enough for a full 5 weekday schedule outdoors in crowds. I can fight over a subway seat pole for space the longer I travel through days in a row.

Civil war smoldered, but Muslims (at this stage) remained very unwilling to kill one another.

Colin is crazy for this and I love it. I don’t think any man in 1815 had such a chaotic 18 hours. He is so fucking proud of himself.

After he swooped in like a madman and straight up stole Pen from Debling the night before, he played out his heroic fantasy by standing up for Pen to Portia the next morning. Then he proceeded to take her to their future home alone, watch himself unwrap the parts he’s been dreaming about in the 🪞, popped her 🍒, rang her 🔔, and put the next Baron Featherington 🍞 in her oven.

This is why we were shown the fake swagger in 3.01 so we could see the real swagger in 3.05.
